This firm is at it again (U.S. Legal Services/ACS, Inc.). Now they are using new names, Adam Smith/Ray Carter but the same phone numbers as in previous months (904-442-9520 and 347-468-8964). They claim that they are in Jacksonville Florida but the area codes are for Boca Raton Florida and Queens-Riker's Island, NY. They state that I need to pay $985.45 or face immediate arrest and imprisonment and then I will owe over $23,000.00.

In February, 2014 I did pay using Green Dot Cash Cards after speaking with George Wallace of US Legal Services. Using the phone directory for US Legal Services, none of the names these people use are listed. They did admit after I confronted them with proof of payment that there are many people committing fraud and even admitted that it is listed on Ripoff Report and the FTC websites. But they still persist. I did have my landline disconnected but they call me constantly on my cell phone and work numbers as I am easily researched on the internet for my job. 

Is there any way they can be stopped? In contacting the Fraud Division of the Illinois Attorney General, they indicated that they are not able to locate these individual/companies.

they are still at it

These people just don't give up. Now claiming to be Attorney General Jeff Foster from American Legal Processing Division, the sent a "summons for jury service" along with an "arrest warrant." I have received three separate emails yesterday, all with a different "loan amount." The spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors are incredible on all of their correspondence and supposed legal documents.

They don't give up

After multiple emails today, ACS does not give up. They will not provide the original documentation I request or a mailing address.  

As I have explained multiple times previously, I am not falling for this scam again. Provide a legitimate mailing address and a certified check will be mailed with return receipt requested. The only difference in the previous payment and your request is that you have switched from Green Dot Cash Cards to Vanilla Reload Network Card. 

This is their most recent response.

We really appreciate your quick response in this matter and as per the agreement your settlement amount is $300.00  which is due on TODAY in order to clear this debt for $856.24. 
 
As we mentioned earlier that the mode of payment will no longer be through secure mode of payments like ACH, VISA or MASTER Cards. The only mode of payment we are allowed to accept has to be through Vanilla Reload Network Card so that you do not give out any of your personal information any more to anyone.
 
Vanilla Reload Network Card IS AVAILABLE AT THESE STORES NATIONWIDE:


WALMART
CVS/PHARMACY
K MART
WALGREENS
RITE AID
7 ELEVEN

Kindly fill the information below and e-mail us back, so that we can collect your payment accordingly.

 

Vanilla Reload Network Card
 
Full Name
 
 
Address
 
 
City State Zip
 
 
Phone Number
 
 
Vanilla Reload Network Card  Number(10digits)
 
 
Amount
 
 
 Here is a detailed guide on how you can pay us through VANILLA RELOAD NETWORK CARD.
1) You have to go to the any of the above mentioned stores to get a “VANILLA RELOAD NETWORK CARD
2) Then load the funds on that card, scratch the card from the back side, you will get the 10 digit reference number.
 3) You have to update us with that 10 digit reference number so that we can track down your payment and update your case file.
You can e-mail or call us with the 10 digit reference number of Vanilla Reload Network Card
NOTE: DO NOT GET CONFUSE WITH THE PREPAID VISA OR MASTER CARD. IT IS A VANILLA RELOAD NETWORK WHERE YOU CAN SCRATCH IT AT BACK AND RECEIVE 10 DIGIT NUMBER. 
 
NOTE: WE WOULD BE LOOKING FOR THE REQUESTED PAYMENT INFORMATION ONTODAY FOR $300.00 SO THAT WE CAN CLOSE THIS ACCOUNT. 
 
We would be looking for your positive response as confirmation and will be sending you the settlement completion letter once the account will be paid in full with zero balance.
 
 
Best Wishes,

The REAL US Legal Services

Here is the written response that I received from the "real" US Legal Services.

Good afternoon Mr. ,

 

No sir, we do not have employees by those names. We are aware that someone has been using our name and trying to collect money. This is a scam and we have been working with the authorities regarding this. I do apologize for the inconvenience to you. I will forward this information to our Fraud Dept.

 

Thank you,

 

U.S. Legal Services, Inc.

Jacksonville, FL 32256

 You cannot be thrown in jail for a debt.  And the Fraud division is correct because they are most likely overseas and use throwaway phones.  Just tell them (if they call again) to shove it up their a**.
